RENTS are three sorts. Rent service, which is reserved upon a tenure; where note How it hath beginning. How a determination of it. Rents. Lib. 2. Cap. 12. Wheresoever the tenant holdeth of his lord by eertaiu rent, 213, whether it be upon a gift in tail, for life, or for years, 58, 214, or upon a feoffment in fee before the stat. quia emptores terrarum, 216, 217, for which a distress is incident of common right, and the tenant is not bound to tender it elsewhere than upon the land out of which it issueth, 341. But then the reversion must remain in him who hath the rent, 215, 228. 346, for rent passeth as incident to the reversion, 572, but not the reverse, 229, for where no fealty is there can be no rent service, 227. In part by the purchase of parcel of the land; for it is apportionable, unless it be so entire as it cannot be severed; and then such services as are annnal are clearly extinct; such as are not, go out of the remnant that is left, 222, 223. In all By a stranger: as if one be disseised of a manor, and the tenants attorn by paying the rent to the disseisor and he die, and his heir be in by descent, 587, if it had been of another rent in gross, it had been a disseisin to me, but at mine election, 588, 589, but if I had given parcel of the manor in tail, before non-payment of the rent, tenant in tail continuing in possession, it could have been no disseisin to me, for that by the gift it is severed from the manor, 590, 591. Rescous, note How a grant of such a rent doth inure; scil. either By what means such rent may be lost. How it hath the How it may be By grant: If one grant rent out of land without clause of distress, 218. If one hold by fealty and rent, or by homage, fealty and rent, and the lord grant the rent only, or grant the rest, reserving the rent, 225, 226. By other accidents; as if there be lord mesne and tenant, the tenant holding over by 5s. rent, the mesne holding over by 12 d. the lord purchaseth the tenancy, the mesnalty is extinct, yet shall the mesne have the surplusage of the rent, which is 4s. as a rent seck, 231, 232. recovered Not by distress, for that were contrary to the name of rent seck, quasi redditus șiccus, 218. But if the grantee have had seisin thereof, if he be disseised of it, which is by denial, enclosure, 259, he may have an assise, 233. 235.
